Hi Greg,
This kind of meta-data doesn't belong in a package.xml, but it would make perfect sense to host it through REST on pecl.php.net. Don't forget, package.xml is used by external channels as well, and they have completely different requirements. package.xml is intended to be used by the pear installer to install packages and provide essential metadata only.
This is the discussion I'm postponing - but the sort of metadata I'm talking about would need to be available via pyrus if that's humanly possible? Basically it shouldn't be difficult to find this kind of information. In my dreams etc. - Steph
